THE NANNY AFFAIR

I buffed out a deep breath, when I felt a hand ran through mine, I whirled and saw Andres holding me.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Miss Sara, are you going to leave dad and me?”.  He asked in his little voice, I bent over hurling him close to me, ” no! I am not! Until your father gets a new caretaker for you!”. I said.

Like a kid, he frowns his face and pulled my hands away from his shoulders, his demeanor changed towards me, “why miss Sara? Don’t you love me anymore? Remember you promised that you will not leave me then why are you saying this?”.

It hurt me to see him like this, during my stay, I have gotten to love him as if he was my son, but with what happened I felt it was best, I left, never to return in their lives.

While I tried to find my words to explain, I had no idea that Andres took hold of a broken bottle from the ground, he pulls out his hand in an attempt to injure himself.

” son! No?”

Thankfully Liam walked in back on time and yelled out, which immediately gained my intuition, I veered and saw the broken piece in his hands, I tried to come closer but he fixed it closer, specifically warned I don’t take anymore step closer to him.

“Son, what is wrong is with you, please stop it?”. Liam veered to us but his attention was fixed on me.

” so tell me to miss Sara, are you going to leave me, if you say yes, I would kill myself!”.  He says tugging the broken piece nearer.

Liam veered and signaled I do something about it, “please?” He whispered to me, frightened for his son’s life.

I stood there without saying a word, I thought of the more difference it will create if I continue to stay around, Andres looked at it and the juncture he tried to run the broken glass through his hand, I immediately tossed it away finally weaving out my answer, “fine, I’ll stay!”.

My answer smudged a smile on his face, as he hugged me. ” thank you miss Sara” he said nailing a weak smile on Liam’s face.
